GNU C/C++ HelloWorld

This chapter covers the basics of C/C++ embedded projects including creating, building, running, and debugging embedded applications. The project referred to in this chapter is called “Hello World.” This application prints “Hello World” text and runs a simple for-loop as a simple demonstration. The application can also be built and run on QEMU emulator.

Note: To build, run and debug Embedded applications with QEMU emulator, please install the xplor-studio-elf blueprint first. Please refer to Guidelines for more information.
